Students in the country’s 20 public universities would soon have full autonomy to run their activities.
The draft would be submitted to the Attorney General’s Chambers in mid-June for approval and then presented to the Cabinet, where other ministries’ input would be sought, before the amendment bill would be tabled in Parliament by the end of this year.
“The amendments will allow them to be free to decide the types of activities they want to take part in and to manage their finances. “That’s why the ministry agreed to the amendments. We want to strengthen values such as responsibility and accountability,” he said. While student affairs in IPTA often drew attention, resulting in the proposed amendments to Sections 15 and 16 – the only two sections in Auku related to students – the ministry, said Mohamed Khaled, is aware of other Auku-related matters that need to be relooked.Citing academic freedom, which is not part of Auku but is under the Statutory Bodies Act 2000 , he said it had been raised that the latter was not suitable for the world of academia.
